We headed directly east to the coast of England....Southwold. It is well-known for its beach and its pier. The pier is loaded with an
entertainment center with all types of quirky games that one can
play. Maggie is walking a dog with John chasing behind and John is getting his brain washed.
This is a classic beach town and has the little beach huts that are common along the coastal area. Proportionally, they are every
bit as expensive as beachfront property in the States. Imagine paying $200,000 for what is basically a
garden shed. It was a beautiful day and there is nothing like eating fish and chips on the pier.
The big purchase for the weekend was a new car for Uncle Lawton. We had a family vote and decided that he was such a fishing nerd
(I have copyrighted this term) that he would actually be excited about his new wheels. So Captain Crabby, look for the UPS truck to drop this off soon.
plays against a celebrity team known as the Lashings. The match was held at the Culford school, which is a private 
school that our neighbors, the Downings, attend. We got a first class education about Cricket and had an excellent afternoon in the sun. The little thatched roof building on the left is the locker room. Not quite the locker rooms that we had at my schools. They also had a refreshment stand. It was a lot like the stand at Winter Park in Wilmington except they served scones and you could get a proper tea in a china cup. The food was served on China.
